Why Leaves Fall in the Fall
Sam’s grandmother needed help raking leaves After breakfast he
walked to her house
“Why don’t leaves fall in the spring?” Sam asked His grandmother
was already raking leaves into piles
“I’ll tell you why,” Grandma said “You see, leaves need water to
make the tree’s food The roots spread out to look for water In the
spring and summer, they take in water.”
Grandma picked up a leaf “See the little lines running through the
leaf?” she asked “They are like tiny tubes They pull up water from the
trunk, which helps the tree to grow.”
Grandma added, “By fall a little bit of cork has grown where each
leaf is joined to the tree The cork stops water from getting to the leaves
The leaves dry up and fall off That is why we rake leaves in the fall.”
“Thanks, Grandma,” Sam said “Look! We’re almost done I think
we are a great team!”

They came to a berry bush and began to eat When he was full,
Barry walked away “You need to eat more,” said Bernice
“Why?” Barry asked
“Every winter bears sleep until spring We need to eat so we will
not be hungry during the winter months,” answered Bernice

the ground The two bears ate all day and night Soon snow began to
fall from the sky The two bears found a cave, went inside, and fell fast
asleep
After all the snow had melted, leaves began to appear on the
branches of the trees again Bernice and Barry came out of their cave
“Mom, I am hungry,” said Barry “I haven’t eaten for months.”

The History of the Airplane
People have dreamed of flying for a long time Before there were
airplanes, people tried all kinds of ways to fly
The Chinese invented the kite thousands of years ago People also
tried to make wings and fly like birds It never worked Then people
went up in hot air balloons Next, the glider was invented And then
people flew in blimps The airplane came along only about one hundred
years ago

cold, windy day in North Carolina Two brothers were on a beach there

for twelve seconds It did not go very far, but it flew

flew It flew for eight minutes It held only the pilot The jet airplane
had an engine that pushed the air to make it fly Over the years,
